“Amazing tour!”
Yoshi was an incredible guide for me as a first time solo traveler to Tokyo. He speaks great English and knows the city very very well. He was very informative, fun, interesting, and knows all of the great spots in Tokyo. He was very friendly and funny as well. I highly recommend Yoshi, and I’m so happy I did this tour with him!

“BEST GUIDE EVER”
Yoshi was our guide for a fascinating day in Tokyo. He quickly navigated through the Tokyo, taught us how to approach and behave in shrines and temples, shared much about Japanese customs, religion and history, fielded all of our questions (even those from left field), and met the disparate wishes of a 77 year old grandma and a 22byear old grandson. We moved seamlessly from historic and religious sites, modern architectural wonders, and the young world of tech, geeks, manga and anime. We even visited a "dog cafe" where petless animal lovers could play with puppies. He found budget-conscious restaurants for differing tastes. He was flexible, well-prepared and his English was fluent. We had a few other guides, as well as cruise ship excursions, and the day with him was the best of a two week trip. Kudos for a job well done.

Mount Fuji is an active stratovolcano that last erupted from 1707 to 1708. At 3776m meters, Mount Fuji is the highest mountain in Japan and its top and gentle slopes are surrounded by rich and unspoiled nature. The mountain attracts many climbers during summer, while in winter its snow-covered top and slope gleam pure white in the sun.
